The Legion is about veterans who continue to serve their country by seeking to serve to fellow veterans, and by seeking to foster and perpetuate the ideals which made this country great.

If you have served federal active duty in the United States Armed Forces since December 7, 1941, and have been honorably discharged or are still serving - you are eligible for membership in The American Legion!
